  <div id="text-content_9105B65D-8E49-43F4-89DB-C875AB56FDF6" class="text-block-content">
    <p>When a student clicks the <strong>Submit for Grading</strong> button on the last page of an assessment or the <em>Table of Contents</em>, they are taken to an <em>Assessment Submission Warning</em> screen to confirm their submission. If they do not click the final <strong>Submit for Grading</strong> button to confirm, and the assessment is NOT timed, their responses may be saved, but the assessment will remain <em>In Progress</em>.</p>
<p>Instructors do not have access to the content of<em> In Progress</em> assessments. On the <a href="content.hlp?docId=howdoiviewstatisticsaboutacompletedassessment"><em>Total Scores</em></a> screen, students with incomplete submissions would be listed as having <em>No Submission</em> recorded.</p>
<p>However, if a student has not yet submitted a copy of an untimed assessment, an instructor can retrieve their submission using the <strong>Automatic Submission</strong> (<strong>Autosubmit</strong>) feature in <em>Tests &amp; Quizzes</em>.</p>
<p><em>Note: The autosubmit option is only available if it has been enabled on your system.</em></p>
  </div>
</div>

      <div class="step screensteps-section screensteps-depth-1" id="how-does-automatic-submission-work">
    <h2 class="step-title screensteps-heading">How does automatic submission work?</h2>
      <div class="step-instructions screensteps-textblock">
  <div id="text-content_B10E4210-5181-4CC4-8649-C1B7BB011B9F" class="text-block-content">
    <p>The <strong>Autosubmit</strong> setting can be enabled on a per-assessment basis and is unchecked (not enabled) by default. For more information on how to enable automatic submission in an assessment's settings, see <a href="content.hlp?docId=whataretheavailabilityandsubmissionsoptionsforanassessment">Availability and Submissions options: Automatic submission</a>, or the steps below.</p>
<p>Behind the scenes, there is an automated process that will check:</p>
<ol>
<li>Did the instructor select the <strong>Autosubmit</strong> setting on this assessment?</li>
<li>Did the <strong>latest acceptance date</strong> for this assessment pass yet?</li>
<li>Did this student press the <strong>Begin Assessment</strong> button, save their work, but fail to successfully submit the assessment via the <strong>Submit for Grading</strong> button on the <em>Assessment Submission Warning</em> screen?</li>
<li>Is this the student's first submission attempt?</li>
</ol>
<p>If all four conditions above are true, the system will automatically submit the student’s saved assessment. The submission data will be available to instructors on the <a href="content.hlp?docId=howdoiviewstatisticsaboutacompletedassessment"><em>Total Scores</em></a> screen within five minutes (or however often your system is configured to run) after the <strong>latest acceptance date</strong> passes.</p>
<p>Instructors can review all student submissions normally. Any assessments that were submitted via the automatic submission feature will be flagged on the <em>Total Scores</em> screen with the text <em>AUTO-SUBMIT</em>. All answers that were saved will be included in the student's automatic submission.</p>
<p><em>Note: Timed assessments are automatically submitted when the timer expires, so you do not need to enable Autosubmit for a timed assessment.</em></p>

    <p>You might still see <em>In Progress</em> assessments after you enabled <strong>Autosubmit</strong> AND waited for about 5-10 minutes (or however often your system is configured to run) after the <strong>latest acceptance date</strong> if the following are true:</p>
<ol>
<li>The assessment allowed multiple submissions, or a student was <a href="content.hlp?docId=howdoiallowastudenttoretakeatestorquiz">allowed to retake</a> the assessment. A student who already submitted the assessment started a new submission but did not complete it. The Automatic Submission process will only submit a student's assessment if they do not have any previous submissions already recorded for that exam. This prevents previous, already successful submissions from being overwritten by an automatic submission.</li>
<li>Very rarely there have been instances where the Automatic Submission feature has not completed submitting an assessment. If your assessment should have been automatically submitted, but it has not, follow the steps above to trigger Autosubmit again on the completed assessment. </li>

    <p>Instructors access automatic submissions from the <a href="content.hlp?docId=howdoiviewstatisticsaboutacompletedassessment"><em>Total Scores</em></a> screen just as they would any other assessment submission. However, automatic submissions display differently from manual or timer submissions as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li>When an automatic submission occurs, the <a href="content.hlp?docId=whatinformationisinatestsquizzesemailnotification">email notification sent to students and/or instructors</a> will contain <em>Notification for assessment auto submission</em>. The <em>Submitted Date</em> in the email notification indicates when the student last saved content in the assessment. The time stamp on the email that was sent will indicate when the actual submission occurred.</li>
<li>On the <a href="content.hlp?docId=howcananinstructorretrieveassessmentsthatweresavedbutnotsubmitted"><em>Total Scores</em></a> screen, automatic submissions are flagged with the text <em>AUTO-SUBMIT</em>. The time stamp that appears in the <em>Submit Date</em> column for automatic submissions indicates when the student last saved content in the assessment, NOT when it was actually submitted by the Automatic Submission feature.</li>
<li>In the <em>Tests &amp; Quizzes</em> <a href="content.hlp?docId=whatisthetestsquizzeseventlog"><em>Event Log</em></a>, the <em>Errors</em> column will indicate <em>No Errors (Auto-submit)</em>. The <em>Date Submitted</em> column will indicate when the actual submission occurred. The <em>Duration</em> column will indicate how much time elapsed between when the student began taking the assessment and when it was actually submitted; it does NOT indicate how much time the student actually spent taking the assessment.</li>
</ol>
<p>Below are examples displaying automatic submissions.</p>

    <p>In the event of an automatic submission, the time stamp on the notification email sent to a student and/or instructor is <em>when the actual submission occurred</em>, while the <em>Submitted Date</em> in the email is the <em>last time the student accessed the assessment</em>.</p>
<p>The subject of the email for an automatic submission will say <em>Notification for assessment auto submission: [the title of the site where the assessment was taken] - [the assessment title].</em></p>
<p>The first line of the email notification will include the text <em>The following assessment auto submission was recorded.</em></p>
